VALUE-ADDED PLASTIC EXTRUSION DESIGN AND ENGINEERING

Our design and engineering teams are experts in creating innovative designs that result in cost-effective, easy-to-manufacture parts that perform as expected. Our team works closely with yours to ensure your parts meet the highest quality standards while keeping materials and manufacturing costs to a minimum.

EXPERIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY COMBINE FOR EXCELLENCE

The key to a successful extrusion is to create harmony between profile design and material – and our team has been doing just that since 1973.

We provide expertise in material selection, design optimization, and tooling design to ensure the best possible outcome. Additionally, we offer assistance in prototyping, testing, and validation to deliver high-quality, customized plastic profiles that meet and exceed expectations.

MATERIAL SELECTION

Material selection is one of the most important, yet daunting aspects of ensuring your extruded part manufactures successfully, performs properly, and is delivered to you at the lowest possible cost. With years of design and engineering experience with a variety of materials, we can confidently recommend the optimum material for any extrusion application. We work with virtually all materials, including those never before extruded.

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION

Our experienced engineers simplify complex designs, reducing costs while achieving the same or better results. To avoid increased expenses due to design changes, we use extrusion simulation software upfront, reducing tool iterations, shortening time-to-market, and saving on manufacturing costs.

In-House Tooling Design & Build

Extrusion tooling encompasses more than just the extrusion die. While complex dies tend to be costlier, other factors like trim or fabrication tools, fixtures, and gauges for secondary operations should also be taken into account. By designing all tooling in-house, we control every aspect of design and production to lower costs and time to market.

Rapid Prototyping

In taking new products to market, speed is a critical factor. Our rapid prototyping capabilities help reduce errors that cause delays and additional expense. Equipped with three extrusion lines dedicated to prototyping, we’re able to expedite the development phase and time-to-market without compromising on quality.

COMPLETE ENGINEERING AND DESIGN CAPABILITIES

We consult with customers early on in the development process to deliver plastic extrusion designs that are simpler, easier to manufacture, and cost less. We work with new products, new extrusions – even materials that haven’t been used in extrusion before.

Our design and engineering team will carefully assess your design to provide recommendations that enhance quality and efficiency. Throughout the design process, we actively value and incorporate customer feedback, ensuring the creation of optimal designs.
